18 years in the village & we like quality food & friendly service - we have had 100’s of meals over the years & our last one was great. Mogul is consistently the best performing Indian Bangladeshi curry house in the area - FACT -

Their food is definitely a cut away the average and tastes delicious. I had the fish masala and a stuffed paratha. It was delicious and not gloopy or artificial at all.

This cosy small Indian restaurant is ideal for a evening meal with friendly staff and a pleasant atmosphere.Situated in the heart of Burley in Wharfedale there is only on street parking but this is not much of a problem.The service is prompt and the menu has a good variety with the food which i found excellent. l

Their menu let me know they were popular with many of our nation's celebrities and boy can I see why! They rolled out the red carpet with a gracious and friendly welcome. Both attentive and knowledgeable, I felt as if at The Ivy (London). The food was delicious and phenomenal, worthy of being served at the BRIT Awards. Sardines on puree, very very nice! Amen. PS. BYOB

Really fabulous meal...starters and main course was just about all we could manage. Beautifully delicate fish starter...cooked to point. Mains had so much flavour with peshwari nan which was a beautiful flavour...so simple but really well executed. Brought our own wine which was a bonus...service was excellent but informal. Ambience relaxed with owner present who was really attentive.

Amazing 1st time experience, staff very friendly, they couldn't do enough for you every question answered with a smile and advice about the menu. Food is definitely the best Indian we've ever had, also you can take in your own alcohol which is a money saver 🤑. The restaurant seemed to have many returning regulars, always a good sign. We will 100% be back ASAP. A special thanks to Paz, when I next visit I will be having a keema curry on his recommendation 😋

Just wanted to share how especially delicious our takeaway curry from the Moghul was this evening. We had a variety of dishes and all were spectacular. We have Moghul takeaways most Friday but it was extra good this evening. Best takeaway ever! The Charnley-Shaws

Pretty regulars to Moghul but by far well under par. Restaurant was not warm, ordered at 7.55pm food eventually arrived for the two of us just after 9pm after several polite enquires re the delay. Clearly too many takeaways given preference over dining customers. Poor effort and will take me a long time to return. Food was pretty good...although my wife did have a dodgy curry tummy the next morning.

Just staying in Burley for the weekend and researched that there are two curry options. We certainly chose the best! Wonderful staff who couldn't be more helpful and an excellent meal. I had the 'special' curry which was a delight - full of 'flavour' rather than just 'heat' ALSO a decent serving of Rice to accompany the curry - so many places provide a miniscule amount - really annoying when rice isn't exactly the most expensive part of the meal. TWO points:- - Do book ahead for a table - i could only count 8 tables when we were there, and all fully occupied at 7.30pm. A measure of its success - no alcohol licence, so 'take your own' - which works brilliantly I just hope we can borrow our friends cottage again soon, and make a return visit. Thanks so much

Picked this one out from the good reviews and booked earlier in week for Saturday night at 7:30. Been out walking the Stanza Stones during the day and didn’t want to eat in more expensive fine dining places in Ilkley just ready for a good curry. All the tables were taken (except ours) and there was a busy buzz of people enjoying their night out. We ate off the Bangladeshi choices and all had good portions and good quality tasty curries. If we’d realised we’d have taken some Black Sheep with us. Could have nipped out next door but enjoyed the simple non alcoholic options.

As my title says I read all the reviews and had to try it myself ..wish we hadn’t ! Having eaten in many Asian restaurants in Bradford I consider myself if not an expert certainly an experienced partaker of this kind of food. We had samosas and onion bahjis for starters,in almost all the places we’ve had these the portion sizes were ample however here they were quite small, as we are in our later years we we usually find in most places that one portion of a main plus rice a naan bread is sufficient for our appetites .. not here, the fact that they forgot our naan which I had to remind the waiter about didn’t help our enjoyment of the meal. One other point I note that one reviewer mentioned it was cold in the winter .. well last night was windy stormy in Yorkshire and for some reason the front door was left open ... very draughty ! All in all not a very pleasant meal and in my opinion over priced especially considering the portion sizes.

4 of us went for a meal on a busy Friday. First time I've eaten here but recommended by our friends. All the food was really good, delicious. I don't like my curries too hot and my starter and main were full of flavour without being really spicy. Great price too. Good service and friendly staff which made it a great meal out. Highly recommend.

I found this place by accident and in veiw of there not being a decent Indian Resteraunt in Otley , we decided to try it, We both then agreed this is by far the best Indian food we have ever tasted, including the resteraunts we visited on our three visits to India itself, Great welcome at the door, friendly staff and brilliant service topped of with the most interestingly varied flavours of the food we ordered, i simply cant wait to go back again,. Had i known that the Moghul existed for all these years i would probably have substituted half my bland English diet, for Indian food instead.I can certainly recommend this place with my hand on my heart, you will not be dissappointed.

I cannot believe that I have not heard of this restaurant before today ! After finding the Tripadvisor reviews, we decided to drive from Otley to try it out as we have never found a local restaurant that we loved.The staff at the Mughul are so friendly and helpful. We ordered our food to takeaway and in around 15 minutes we were on our way home, itching to try it out.We both had a Gosht Massala, mixed starter and poppadoms. We were definitely not disappointed, the curries were the best we have ever had. The lamb was tender and tasted beautiful, it was spiced to perfection and the flavours were mouthwatering. The mixed starter was equally lovely and there was not a scrap left (unheard of in our house). We can`t wait to visit again and try some other dishes, if we can resist buying the massala again. We could not recommend this restaurant highly enough it is amazing !

I was the only person in the restaurant on a Sunday evening but they were very busy with takeaway orders. My special dish was perfectly spiced and a good heat. Pickle tray was one if the better ones. Some restaurants scrimp on this: not here. It’s unlicensed so it was great to be able to take my black sheep in rather than be forced to buy weak, gassy lager.

This review is a singular but also to cover a fair numerous of occasions me and the girlfriend have visited. It is superb. The chef will make your curry to the standards that you desire the staff are fantastic and make you feel like part of the furniture. How can you right a review without putting a negative thought. Well i will tell you why because you can't. Faultless is the word. There isn't a curry house nearby that can touch it. This is the place for me. It's either a jaflong or a garlic chicken and always makes me satisfied. Got to love shuba x

Visiting for the FLAB sportive in Ilkley this weekend, recommended this restaurant by our Air BNB host. We love Indian food and frequently visit curry houses in Birmingham and the Black Country and cook our own at home. All of our meals here tonight were delicious and massively exceeded our expectations and in fact we have asked for repeats as take aways to take back home with us. I had the Machli (Bangladeshi river fish) Madras, hubby had Lamb Satkora and our friend had Lamb Passanda (which our waiter tells us is girly!) The staff are warm, friendly and above all, genuinely interested in whether you enjoy their food. If you like Indian food like we do, this is a most unexpected and happy find in the Yorkshire Moors. We highly recommend.

We come frequently on holiday to Burley-in-Wharfedale, and always visit the Moghul. The food is always good and the service and friendliness top-notch. I am famous for always eating a very mild curry but tried something new yesterday (murgh garlic) and it was great! The price for our party of 4 was really reasonable, and as you can take your own alcohol with you, there's no overpriced drinks bumping up the bill.

My family and I used to visit the restaurant pretty much on a weekly basis when we lived in the area for many many years. We have now been living in the Midlands for around 5 years and we still have yet to find a place as good as this! Even in Birmingham, which is renowned for its Indian restaurants!! Recently, it was my husband's 60th birthday and his birthday wish was to travel up to Yorkshire for a family meal at the Moghul. Shuba went above and beyond, surprising us with a whole spicy roasted chicken with candles on top! He'd also arranged for a local opera singer to sing Happy Birthday to my husband, which was such a fabulous idea. She was absolutely superb!! The food was as good as we remembered, all dishes having their own individual taste, unlike many Indian restaurants where the dishes all taste the same. The food is simply sublime! Shuba and his team are absolutely wonderful. Was so lovely to see you again Shuba and will make sure we make the 150 mile journey more often!! Its worth it for your delicious food!!!! (and also to see you of course!)

We enjoyed our first visit so much that we've now swiftly returned, this time with grandchildren aged 8 and 10. We had a super meal in every respect. We had an early-evening table, the owner took our order, and related well with the children as well as to us, although he was a little taken aback when the 10-year-old ordered a Madras (which he's had before elsewhere and knows he enjoys); his sister asked for a mild Korma, and was well-pleased with the food when it came. And of course, our grown-up plates were as good as ever, plus the poppadoms and pickles, plus the nan and chapattis. We'll be back to bring even more friends and family.

Having lived in Burley for over 10 years, the Moghul was our weekly treat. However, we moved out of the area over 3 years ago and unfortunately it was no longer our local. Last week we were in the area for a night and of course we could not leave without ordering a takeout. The food was as outstanding as ever. We ordered our favourite dishes and they all tasted exactly as we remembered - every dish is freshly made, (no gloopy and greasy tomato puree sauces). The portions are plentiful and each dish tastes completely different to the others, and each one absolutely delicious!! Was lovely to see Shuba and the guys again! Looking forward to our next visit to Yorkshire and of course a visit to the Moghul will be an absolute must!! If you live in the area or just passing through, give it a try, you will definitely not be disappointed.

This restaurant never fails to impress with a vast range of starters and mains to choose from. To begin we had poppadoms and a selection of four very tasty chutneys. We opted for the onion bhaji starter, which came with two good sized bhaji's and salad . I had the chicken Birwani for main with accompanying vegetable curry which was a very good sized portion and excellent quality and taste. If you want an alcoholic drink you are invited to take your own. As a leaving gift we were given a couple of chocolates, which was a nice jesture. All this for around £13 we thought was really good value and the service was excellent at this well established restaurant

I never used to be overly fond of this place, it was a bit hit and miss for me. However, I've been 4 times since they changed the chef and every curry I've had has been superb. I can recommend the jaflong and the green masala, straight out of the top drawer. The staff are also very friendly and I like that you can nip to the white horse round the corner and bring in a pint, very handy.

Called early on Saturday evening after a trip to the Dales. We were the first customers in on the night, and were welcomed by staff that were both friendly and welcoming. Popadoms arrived swiftly and were crisp and fresh. There was then quite a wait for the starters, perhaps we had caught the kitchen by surprise by our early arrival. The starters fish pakora and onion bargee were poor, the batter on the fish was soggy and oily, the onions hard on the outside and uncooked in the middle. The main courses however were tasty and of a good size, the nam bread was as good as you get. All in all a meal not living up to expectations.

I am a fourteen year old boy and i have visited the Moghul regularly since i was a little child. Often it is with my family but i aslo have been with just my friends for birthdays. Once we even went for christmas! Every time i go i am never disappointed. The food is delicious, it is good for vegetarians, the selection is huge and if you ask they will cook you something else to suit what you want. Also, the service is so friendly and the atmosphere is usually lively and busy. You have to bring your own alcohol but thats not a problem in my opinion. Finally they have a great value kids menu that does english food incase the kids arent to keen on the Bangladeshi cuisine.

Whilst now grown up, a trip to the Moghul is a must for any family celebration or just a regular treat. The food is truly second to none and the service provided by our venerable friend Shuba and his dedicated staff is exceptional.If your favourite dish is not on the menu, the chef can supply it on request.Take your own alcoholic beverage or buy it at the pub next door and walk round.

As a family we must have gone through the whole menu and more (ask and they will cook you individual dishes to suit your palate) service is extremely friendly and we now consider all the staff now as our friends. This restaurant prides itself in not being either Indian or Asian it is proudly Bangladeshi and is all the better for it. It's not licenced but I like that as it's not always when we eat there we want to drink with our curry. In a word First Class (ok that's two!)

I regularly eat at Moghul with the local bike club. The food is very good quality (I recommend Murgh Nawaabi, Murgh Amborkhana and Machli Massala) and comes in large portions and it's not expensive. Service from Shubar and co is very friendly. They're really good with kids and have a less spicy menu for them. You can't but alcohol at the restaurant (which makes your meal significantly cheaper than in licensed restaurants) but you can take your own in and we usually pop next door to the White Horse and bring the drinks round. Moghul also offers a good take away service.

We have eaten curries all over, Bradford, Rusholme , India to mention just a few and our meal here was delicious.We found this place on TripAdvisor, very good reviews and they weren't wrong!We have eaten here 3 times already in the past 9 days which is testament to how much we have enjoyed our meals.We had a vegetarian and a meat dish, both absolutely delicious.One other point we like is being able to bring our own drinks, the atmosphere is great, very friendly staff.We would recommend Moghuls to anybody who enjoys an excellent curry.

This tiny but welcoming little establishment provides some of the best South Asian cuisine available in the greater Ilkley area. The manager, Subhaan, is so kind, as are his staff, and the food is incredibly tasty, with a lovely balance of flavours, with everything clearly cooked using fresh ingredients. We were served relatively quickly, too. The setting itself can seem cramped if you are going on a busy night with a large party, in which case I would recommend you order a takeaway instead, and they do deliver free of charge within the area. We had an exquisite meal, which was very good value, and are looking forward to having an excuse to go here again very soon.

How great to live near this fantastic curry house. We've been going regularly for over 10 years now - and ordering takeaways regularly too. They have seen our son grow from a little 5 year old to a strapping 15 year old - but he STILL always gets a lollipop! First choice for an Indian meal out. See you soon, Moghul!

25 years of perfect curries, with excellent staff and service. We look forward virtually every Friday to meeting our friends in the Moghul, enjoying the good food the and atmosphere.If you love curries you will love the Moghul.

We've been customers of The Moghul for a few years, usually eating in the restaurant and occasionally having a takeaway. What makes this restaurant special is the food, which consistently is of a very high standard, but also the friendly service from the owner and his team. If your in the area, or fancy a visit to the Burley in Wharfedale/Ilkley area, you must give this restaurant a try as it's the best we've tried. Personally, I've eaten at Indian/Bangladeshi restaurants all over the country, and I'm struggling to find one which provides such good food and has great service, at this price. If you're not the driver, an added bonus is that you can bring your own booze - even better value for money when you're not taking up half the bill with drinks.I think The Moghul takes some beating, whether your a regular or fancy a special trip.

We have been patrons of the Moghul Bangladeshi restaurant for about eight years. We visit virtually every Friday evening in the year, the exception being when we are away from home. At the end of a demanding week, the Friday visit to Moghul, often preceded by some fine ale in the equally friendly White Horse a couple of doors away, quickly dissolves any residual tension. Usually welcomed by Shuba, the gently spoken and always affable manager, you are shown to a table and generally after a fairly short wait, the meal is served. We have never been disappointed and the healthy blend of fresh vegetables and spices whether accompanied by meat or lentils is delicious. Indeed the pilau rice is so impressive in appearance and taste, the first few mouthfuls can be eaten without accompaniment. We especially recommend the nawabi and jalfrezi curries, the vegetable thali, and various amborkanas. Those who are very keen on mixing good ale and curry can take their beer from the pub to Moghul with the blessing of both parties. Finally, there is little doubt that whatever you choose you will get great value for your money.

If I had this establishment on my doorstep I would be really happy, and be visiting pretty frequently. In absolute terms there are curry places I prefer, so I can't justify a 5 rating but if I could give a 4.5 I would.The first thing that impressed be about the place was the hospitality shown by the owner and his staff. Sometimes you can come to a restaurant and be greeted nicely, but somehow there's no warmth. Here it felt as though I was a welcome guest. The room itself is quite small, the location is a part of a small terrace of village shops, but the space is well used and didn't feel cramped. I imaginFood was tasty, good bhajis, nice lamb curry, fresh naan, clearly straight from the tandoor and the price was very reasonable. I will certainly come back and try some of the other items on the menu.

This is a great restaurant. The food is excellent, big portions, super tasty and just the right amount of heat. The owner is really friendly and service is excellent. The only slight criticism is that the lighting is very bright! Maybe I'm just conscious about my wrinkles, but dimmer lighting would probably be appreciated :-)

Having lived in Burley all my life, and having sampled every curry house in the surrounding area, we keep on coming back here.The welcome is warm, the atmosphere friendly, the price reasonable and the food superb. Though un-assuming from the main street, this place is valued in high stead by the majority of the village and has been a regular for me and my family for over 15 years. The staff, service and standard has remained at such a high level that this restaurant has become a village constant in the midst of a raft of short-lived eateries that have sprung up elsewhere. If you're looking for somewhere to eat in Ilkley, Burley or Otley, look no further. And say hi to Shuba for us!

I ate here with some friends recently and would love to go back. The food was authentic with big portions and a nice selection. It looked like there was a variety of dishes from Bangladesh and India. I couldn't make a decision, so the friendly owner recommended a perfect dish for me...a combination of spice and sweetness with a nice sauce. The smells matched the delicious tasting food that was presented to us and we were all pleased. The family we came here with come often and I only wish I lived closer to experience more of Moghul's home cooked meals. They have take away, so I might just place an order before leaving.

I have visited The Moghul in burley in Wharfedale for years. It's a regular weekend treat. And we often visit as a family.The staff are lovely and welcoming and often help me choose a dish and will adjust a dish to my liking. It's a bring your own booze which keeps the cost down. The atmosphere is great a is the food.We all love it.

Excellent food and a warm welcome await you at the Moghul. We have been coming here ever since it first opened approx 23 years ago. We have tried other Asian restaurants over the years and this has remained our favourite .Shuba and his team will advise you on dishes to try according to your palate and wherever possible will adapt them to suit your taste.Whilst the early bird menu is very good value, you will find that the a la carte menu is not expensive .All my family and friends highly recommend eating here .Peter and Deborah

I have been eating at the moghul for a number of years. The food is always tasty. The service is friendly but not overwhelming. I have spent many a happy night here and would recommend it to everyone who appreciates good food and a lovely friendly atmosphere.

I have been going to this restaurant on a more or less weekly basis for some years now often in the company of friends who have been going in virtually since it first opened.What more can be said other than the food is always top notch, the service is excellent and those who provide it are all happy smiley people who will advise you on any of the dishes you may fancy trying, but are not too sure. Meals can always be adapted to personal tastes.As for the owner Shuba - an excellent host for whom nothing seems too much trouble.Try the early bird special Mondays to Thursdays - outstanding value - added to the fact that you take your own drinks or even make use of the neighbouring pubs.Go on give it a go!

We have only just moved into the area and enjoyed takeaways at this restaurant twice so far. The food is superb and the owner chats away with us whilst waiting for our food. I understand this place has been here over 20 years.... That says everything really.

If you're looking for an alternative version of indian cuisine, you can try this restaurant. It has great tasting Bangladeshi rendition of indian food, and the customers, though i'd loathe to say, has better service standards than their other indian counterparts.The food itself is meticulously prepared, and you don't see your standard ghee soaked curry here. All in all, will return for another great tasting bangladeshi food!

I recently booked a table for myself and my family, and without a doubt it has to be the best authentic meal I have had, the staff are amazing their customer service was outstanding and their music had the atmosphere feeling very warm . Though It is small, it is very cosy to sit in I highly recommend to Moghul, please take your time out to go down and experience what I have. 5 star worthy :)

Met friends for a meal in the Moghul last night and a great time was had by all. It was a Saturday night and the place was full so glad we booked. Admittedly it's a little compact inside but this added to an almost party like atmosphere which is fuelled by the friendly owner who really looks after everybody and has a nice sense of humour. The food really was delicious and competitively priced for the quality. Add to the fact we brought our own wine meant the there were no alarmed faces when the bill arrived plus despite people waiting for tables we never felt rushed by the waiters to finish our drinks. Can't recommend this place highly enough!
